Bath repair in Smeeth without replacing anything
Small damage on a bath is worth repairing early. Exposed metal on enamelled baths soon rusts, while cracks in acrylic grow each time the bath moves. A repair stops both. We’re often asked to fix damage beneath the taps and a chipped rim or side, on whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and cast iron enamel.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a few hours, depending on the damage.
- We start by looking at the damage and confirming the plan with you.
- Loose enamel, rust and dirt are removed so the repair can bond.
- The damage is filled in layers and shaped to the curve of the bath.
- The colour is tinted by hand until it matches.
- The repair is polished to the same gloss as the bath and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Advice
Signs you need bath repair in Smeeth
Most bath damage comes from something dropped: bottles, shower heads, tiles and tools. On steel and cast iron baths, any chip down to the metal lets water in, and rust follows.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Damage done while the bathroom was being fitted
- A chip where the taps sit
- Impact holes in acrylic
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting

Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Should you replace it?
Many people think a damaged bath means a new one. In most cases it doesn’t: a proper repair gives it years more use, and costs far less than the disruption of a replacement. Our bath repair starts from £95. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Your questions about bath repair in Smeeth
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Kent. Just include your postcode and we’ll offer you dates.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Check under the bath panel, or send us a picture.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How much does bath repair cost in Smeeth?
Repairs from £95. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you fix rust around the plughole?
Yes, very frequently. We take it back to sound metal, seal it, fill it and match the colour.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches are filled and matched, just like other baths.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Check that an acrylic bath doesn’t move when you stand in it
- Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
- Fix dripping taps early to stop staining and limescale
- Give the bath a quick rinse after use
For the first few days, keep heavy bottles off the repaired spot. After that, normal gentle cleaning is fine without abrasive products.
A chip on a metal bath shouldn’t be left. Water gets to the metal and rust starts, and a rust spot is a bigger repair than a clean chip.
What we can’t put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- A steel bath rusted through
- Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
